Advice on very simple project for newbie please.

Hi Scotty jnr

Boffin1, it isn't Scotty with the problem here. Just thought you ought to know.

Some are not giving any assistance at all so there's nothing for me to comply with.

Of course, you don't count me in that group. After all, I moved your post to the correct section for you.

What we love, absolutely love, is to help you to learn and come out of the experience with your arduino feeling great.

Amen
